    He bathed through the back of him. It was one of those where we would have complained were it not given the other way... But they did miss a blatant foul on macullum just before that

    I think that might have factored in, you never know with officials but McCallum was definitely a foul and he let it go if he then gives a pretty soft penalty people would be baying for his blood.

    Can see why Championship is his level.

    I think Rowe will be gone whatever, but regardless of that I'd have him replacing Barnes so Tzolis can work some magic in attacking positions (Think Stiepermann style role), allowing us to field pace out wide.

    I see that much more fitting of the expected style that Knapper will want us to translate into, plus enhances us as a younger squad of developing talent.

    If we sold Rowe on promotion we’ve learnt nothing. 

    He’s a good player but he’s unlikely to be interesting the top PL teams yet and he’ll already have his chance at a PL crack with us.

    In contrast I struggle to see a scenario where we keep hold of Tzolis.

    4th and 5th are now settled, possibly 8th and 9th too. The games are running out.

    It's a shame about the Sorensen injury what with Duffy ring rusty, Hanley in 'rehab'.

    So a play-off semi against Ipswich, Leeds or Leicester. Still all to play for top 2.

    Southampton and WBA can now plan for the play-offs and start practicing penalties...

    We definitely want whoever comes third, the psychological impact on that team is going to be massive.

    I still think it will be the binners, especially after we beat them Saturday.

    We don't really want to finish 5th tbh as that probably means Southampton in the play-offs as judging how we melted today would be tough over 2 legs.

    Honestly just making the playoffs should be the objective so the main thing is Preston and Coventry losing.

    Warning signs were there Friday against Plymouth.. certain players were flagging then but naming an unchanged starting 11 seems a little bit deluded. 

    There’s few options, team pretty much picks itself.

    The gulf in strength between the two squads today was absolutely massive.

    Leicester bringing on players like Vardy and Justin while we had Gibbs and Fassnacht.

    Iheanacho and Coady sitting on the bench.

    Most of their bench would walk into our best 11 is the reality.

    I’m with those that can’t see Dimi staying, I imagine Knapper wants to freshen up the squad and while I like him, Dimi has proved consistently inconsistent and must be on high wages.

    McCallum is younger, still potential to improve but depending on the league we are in he’s unlikely to be first choice especially because he wasn’t already this season.

    I wouldn’t be surprised to see both leave, but if we were to keep one I suspect it’s McCallum.

    Pretty sure the implication from Knapper was we weren’t having any other contract discussions yet with players out in the summer, maybe that’s still the case.

    Id be surprised if we don’t give Sorensen one more year due to his utility but he shouldn’t be in a conversation about having two genuine LBs IMO, he’s 3rd (arguably 4th because of Kenny) choice.
